Passpartout The Starving Artist Review
Passpartout: The Starving Artist gives the indie gaming world an absolutely brilliant mechanic that is just brimming with potential, and then yanks the carpet out from underneath all of your lofty ideas of where the game could and should go. This seriously could have been Indie GOTY material, but falls short in too many areas that would have been so simple to implement compared to the heavy lifting that has already been done to get the game this far.
Essentially, this title gives you a simplified version of MS Paint coupled with a shockingly smart AI audience that judges your artwork through offering to buy it at various prices. BUT it actually manages to have this deep level it reaches wherein you find yourself actually managing to get better with these simple tools and creating better artwork on your own accord. It definitely has a zen-like quality that works oh-so well. The music is superb.
After a bit of creating and naming paintings, you earn an additional painting tool. Oh my gawd, this is gonna level up to Photoshop-esque quality, and OMG I’m gonna have a gallery and manage my money and rent locations! The potential! That was the thought process as I played, but unfortunately it fizzles quick and the deeper stuff I hoped for falls short leaving the core experience kind of paper-thin. But I still recommend the game. The feels I get when learning new techniques with these simple tools is well worth the asking price. I just want so much more. And the idea merits more than what you get. Passpartout could have really taken the indie scene by storm, but instead puttered out for lack of depth and use of its potential. I still have a lot of love for it, though.
